Why I Became a Dog Trainer
I am excited about increasing the welfare of the animals we call family by helping parents create strong and positive relationships through training with their dogs. One area I am passionate about is rescue and working through the unique challenges that these dogs have, especially with behavior modification to aid in separation anxiety, fear-based behavior and aggression.Background Before Becoming a Dog Trainer
Before becoming a dog trainer, I spent 23 years working as a Marine Mammal trainer with dolphins and sea lions, including at the National Aquarium in Baltimore. After that, I spent four years working as a zookeeper, training species such as polar bears, tigers, lynx, coyote and parrots.My Dog
I currently have a mixed breed dog named Raven Noodle, who I adopted from PAWS. Although unplanned, we foster failed and she became a part of the family!Testimonials
Allison was fantastic. I got way more out of the puppy social than I expected. Very trusting environment.
- Cory Sejo
The Cooperative Care program was so helpful! Allison was an excellent trainer, and now Seogi can go to the groomer much more comfortably. 10 out of 10!

The puppy social was a great experience. I was impressed with our trainer, Allison. I was nervous going into the training with my 4 month old dachshund. Allison was reassuring and patient. We learned so much from the social and I look forward to other training opportunities with Tucker Pup's.
